I just learned that Mike Polensek has been on Cleveland City Council since 1978. Twelve terms. This is not good, right? Or is it OK? #termlimits
Glad to comment at @CleCityCouncil last night on the City Council redistricting process, which has historically operated behind closed doors and produced gerrymandered maps. Council has an opportunity to break with that history and vote in fair maps this time around. Thread. 1/7
I hate doing this but @JayUrban11 please stop writing about me. By name or as that “one person.” I don’t want to address you ever on any account, real or a burner. And that’s not me. I don’t even like birds.
Actually, if the developer had made a few modifications it would have gotten through design review faster instead of having to be seen NINE times. Us “NIMBYs” had no impact on process or decisions. So you can 100% blame the developer on that still being vacant.

Bibb is a calculating politician w/ national ambitions. He does not have “views.” He has “positions,” which are merely reflections of his highest value supporters / potential supporters. His position here—that any resolution must center a condemnation of Hamas—is no exception.

Very sad and could’ve been prevented. Keeping my fingers crossed they move into the lovely Toast space. “Revitalization” of our neighborhoods means nothing if we can’t keep some of the good stuff.

It’s a pretty building but we need to be careful tying everything to creating a walkable city. Institutions built for grandeur are often not human-scale. They’re things we are forced to walk by, not to, taking up space and time. I hope the rest of the riverfront is for people.

I lived behind Toast when it opened. Spent lots of meaningful time there. Although the menu became stagnant I’m still really sad to see it go. Nothing will fill the shoes of what it was. Maybe it could be the new home of Pearl St.

“One of the three owners Fridrich's "in talks" with, he said, hinted at tearing down the bike shop to make way for apartments and ground-floor retail. (A similar fate that befell the Old Fashioned Hotdogs diner a few blocks west, in 2020.)” The body’s not even cold yet.

@philippilk @fuelgrannie We are nearing “late stage yimby” where everyone knows it doesn’t work.
@Ex_InvisibleMan @tampatude Polensek is a camera hog and values North Collinwood over South Collinwood. This is a relatively new distinction that has racial and class overtones.
@tampatude Mike DeWine was the Lt Gov when i was in college and I am in my 50’s . This crooked state can’t bribe new politicians like the old ones.
Gonna raise $160 million/yr on the back of smokers to fund various private interests (but we love artists, i get it). Everyone in the arts will suffer if we don't pass this, they say. How long have Cuyahoga County transit riders suffered from inadequate service?
There are fewer smokers today, so the Cuyahoga County Arts and Culture board wants to tax remaining smokers more, to increase revenue. County Council will decide whether to put a cigarette tax increase on November ballot. Reporting @steven_litt cleveland.com/news/2024/04/c…

@tampatude I know I was thinking the same thing. He was around for the creation of the first flag! 🤣
The most unrealistic thing about The Sopranos is that her name is “Meadow.” No way in hell Tony and Carmella had a baby girl in 1982 in New Jersey and didn’t name her Gianna Marie.

@yhdistyminen Just to be absolutely clear, theres a massive difference between “foreigners” (read: people coming to actually live in the community), and “foreigners” (read: corrupt party kleptocrats who are buying up real estate with stolen funds from their nation, in money laundering schemes)
@yhdistyminen New market housing tends to be segregated by income and therefore by race which is why leftists aren't very gung-ho on it. But you know that already!
@homoluigi - belief that the unregulated free market will fix problems it created - serving the needs of the wealthy before those of the poor and middle class
